I have this diamond on hold. To me this seems like a good value at $4178. It will be set in an engagement ring.
I would like your opinions.

Spoke with a sales guy, it is eye clean.

It is a round brilliant diamond, .84 carats, Color G, SI1 clarity, excellent cut.

Thanks for your opinions!

Have you seen the stone in-person? If so what did you think?

Fine by the numbers. What year was the report issued? Post report number and exact ct wt. And do you have more info - a scan, pics?
 
Have not seen it in person. Report is August 2011. Report number is GIA Report: 2135720096.
Have not seen pics or a scan. Exact weight is .84 Carat.
Thanks for your opinion, and any additional insight you have.

Everything on the report looks good, it sounds like you won't see it before you buy? In that case have your (hopefully trusted) vendor look it over and get his/her opinion, if they can take some pictures even better, and be sure to have a return for refund policy in-writing before you buy. What type of setting are you considering? If you're thinking about a bezel or something else that makes it difficult/impossible to switch stones you'll want to have the stone shipped out loose to inspect before having it set :sun:
 
Thanks for the feedback.
I'll see if I can get some pics.
I am buying the loose diamond so I can inspect it and have it appraised before I have it set, in a tiffany style solitaire setting.
Getting nervous/excited!

:D

Perfect! If your eyes like what they see then you have your winner (and I think they will, there's no reason to think they won't!)

:appl:
 
Not a bad stone indeed :-)
